joedirtae09 Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 its there... it took me some time to find it. once you select a style, on the bottom, theres a tab for additional info, it lists all the specs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonLGT Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Im sure they are just as durable as any other cast wheel (like rota, XXR, ect.). Im sure you wont have any issues running them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 They seem awfully heavy: 28 lbs for the 18" ST100 and 24 lbs for the 18" ST120. Seek first to understand, then to be understood. In other words: SEARCH before you post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDN 2.5i Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I've sent a message to Sonic Tuning asking about availability of 17x8 5x100 ET48 wheels - thread on Nasioc suggested they may be releasing 17s soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDN 2.5i Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 So, spoke with Sonic Tuning today, they can do 17s but they need a minimum of 10 people, with paid deposits, to do a custom run. Wheel price would be between $599 and $649, so definitely competitive with Rotas etc. New production is coming low pressure cast, resulting in lighter weights over the prior production which is gravity cast. Feedback on the wheels has been very positive from what I can see across various forums. They've had more uptake with the BMW and Audi crowd to date and you'll see good reviews across forums for those makes. I'd like to get new wheels this summer and find their wheels to be an attractive option. I'll post up a new GI thread to see if we can get 10 people to come to a consensus on one of their wheel designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joedirtae09 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 i hope some of you guys get these wheels so I can see how our cars will look with them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stclark13 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Just an fyi these wheels are on ebay for a few bucks less.Looks like they only have the 18's listed though. I'm happy to hear that they're not bad wheels. I saw the st120's awhile back but had reservations about buying them. I may pull the trigger now.

Just checked but those are different wheels I think - branded Stern... Same nomenclature in ST8 but that's a different product, not Subaru hubcentric and nonstandard offsets...

CDN 2.5i Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Maybe post up a link to the auction you're referring to? Also, check my other thread regarding trying to get Sonic Tuning to produce some 17" wheels http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/gi-17-wheels-sonic-tuningi-need-10-buyers-deposits-157335.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
